What is the promise and covenant in Deuteronomy 30:3 about Israel's regathering?
Deuteronomy 30:3 promises that after Israel is dispersed for centuries, the LORD will turn their captivity, have compassion, and gather them from all nations where He scattered them. This covenant regathering is evidenced in the modern return of Jews to Israel from many nations.
Les teaches that verse 3 is the promise, the covenant: after Israel has been dispersed for centuries, the LORD thy God will turn thy captivity, have compassion, and gather thee from all the nations whither the LORD thy God hath scattered thee. He notes many Jews lost sight of that promise, but in our own generation God's Word is true: He is bringing them back from every nation under heaven. Les cites documentation that Jews now living in Israel had come from 133 different sovereign nations. They have been driven everywhere and are coming home all the time. He adds that some nations no longer have a Jew among their citizenry, such as Albania, that little nation across the sea from Italy; only a few hundred remain in Syria, and many nations have hardly any Jews left. The main two with large numbers are Russia and America.
That then the LORD thy God will turn thy captivity, and have compassion upon thee, and will return and gather thee from all the nations, whither the LORD thy God hath scattered thee.
